Scheduled transactions - problem with Google Drive?

Hi,
I wondered if someone could help with trying to work out why scheduled transactions that previously automatically filled in the ledger correctly have stopped working properly. I have a feeling this has happened since a recent Google Drive for Desktop update, but I can't be sure. I'm using Google Drive to share the folder that the KMyMoney data files are stored in, and recently Google upgraded the Drive for Desktop platform to require you to opt in to have files stored offline (rather than only available as and when needed, downloded on the fly(?)). I'm wondering if this is somehow causing problems for KMyMoney.

I cannot imagine why GD (Google Drive) should have an influence on the internals of KMyMoney, but you never know. Here's what I would try: copy the file over to a non-GD covered location and open it from there. If the problem goes away, it's GD related. If it persists we need to look into KMyMoney and its options. Which version of KMyMoney are you using on which operating system?

Thanks.

I'm using KMyMoney across two OSes: Windows 11 and v5.0.6; and Opensuse Leap 15.3 and v5.1.1. But GD functions differently in the two OSes.

But I'm also wondering if I need to use a later version in Windows 11? What would you recommend?

I'll try moving the file as you suggest and report back.
